Term Name: | mechanosensitive voltage-gated sodium channel activity |
---|---|
Synonyms: | mechanically-modulated voltage-gated sodium channel activity |
Definition: | Enables the transmembrane transfer of a sodium ion by a voltage-gated channel whose activity is modulated in response to mechanical stress. Response to mechanical stress and voltage gating together is different than the sum of individual responses. A voltage-gated channel is a channel whose open state is dependent on the voltage across the membrane in which it is embedded. |
